    Q:
    How can you test the temperature sender in case of overheating indication for the 2000 Ford Expedition? Posted by Customer
    A:
    To test the temperature sender, it should read in the cold range when the engine is cold. Disconnect the electrical connector from the sender and attach a jumper wire between the two pins of the connector. With the key ON, the gauge should swing to full hot. If it doesn't, there may be a problem in the circuit from the sender to the instrument panel.

    Q:
    I suspect I have a bad Engine Coolant Temperature sensor (the one that feeds the computer). My understanding is the one I am after has two leads/wires on the plug. The only one I can locate has one lead and I suspect it is the temp gauge sender. I have a 1997 Mercury Sable Wagon (LS) with a 3.0 Duratec engine. Your listing does not have a picture so I'm not sure if it the correct one let alone where it is located. Can you help before I place the order?? The gauge was working fine. The car cranks but won't start. I'm thinking if the sensor is bad the computer thinks the engine temperature is out of limits therefor won't let the engine start. I know it is pretty weird but I have seen it happen in a video posting. Posted by Customer: 1997 Mercury Sable
